*THIS IS A WOMEN'S ONLY DANCE WORKSHOP*
On December 1st, is coming down from Montreal to grace us with her smooth Afrohouse vibes!
Rama began her dance journey at the age of 14, initially exploring modern jazz and hip-hop. Upon moving to Montreal in 2012, she delved deeper into Dancehall and African street dance styles, ultimately deciding to specialize in the African street dance Kuduro/Afrohouse from Angola. This immersion allowed her to seamlessly blend her African roots with her passion for dance, shaping a unique artistic identity. Through various training, competitions, and opportunities, Rama has meticulously refined her talent.
Since 2017, she has been sharing her passion and expertise as a dance teacher for children and adults of all levels. As a choreographer and artistic director, she has staged numerous projects, contracts, and performances. Rama has had the honor of performing as an opening act for renowned artists such as Burna Boy, Wizkid, Dadju, Tayc, and Rema. In parallel, she has been working with Uplift514 studio, and served as an administrator for L'OBNL MDS. She also co-founded Mouvement AfrohouseMTL, an organization that hosts dance events such as RootsCamp Montreal and charitable events.
Her goal as an artist is to push the boundaries of her creativity, spread joy, and share the richness of her cultures worldwide. She aspires to continue growing as an artist, pushing her own limits, and inspiring others to do the same.
